My Den - A mix of Vintage / Modern & Retro Consoles

[Wookie-Balls]

This my den - it's a bit of a work in progress - I've more to add including my vintage figs as I clean, restore and recard them for wall mounting... I also plan to hang my Ties and X-wing from the ceiling.

It's rather meager in vintage terms compared to some of your collections - but it's my warm, safe place away form the world

I'm awaiting the arrival of a Vintage Star Destroyer Playset - I also have a Ep1 Naboo fighter, Royal Starship, Clone gunship, Vintage Turret and Imperial Attack base playsets - but I don't have the room to display them....yet :lol:

And the stubby ATAT belongs to the wife (as does the Dukes of Hazard stuff...)

Very nice mate. What's that AT-AT on the TV?

 

[Wookie-Balls]

Thanks for the kind words lads - I know it's pretty lame compared to your massive vintage collections Hopefully it'll look better once I get a few more of my old vintage pieces cleaned up and on show.

Capetown the AT-AT on the TV is a 'Galactic Heroes' one, my wife collects that line

Did you see Luke has some nice figures for sale?

That's a fantastic set up - love the old games systems too

 

[plantman]

Im no fan of modern, but that setup looks really cool, nice one

Looking good wookie. Those Centurions are awesome!

I've started to change a few things about a little bit.... I know the repro cards will be to very few peoples' tastes, however due to a lack of display space I liked the idea of mounting my Vintage figures on the wall...Besides due to two other daft, expensive hobbies I'll never be able to afford a MOC collection!!!

In an effort to be responsible each card has "Reproduction" written in sharpie on the rear. No-one will ever be able to try and pass these figures off as original MOCs should I snuff it - or be burgled by some common footpad....

I have about another 30 figures to be mounted on the walls, then it'll be time to hang up my rebel fighters / Ties...

You're making me want to buy one again. Binned my A500 recently. :x But at least I've kept all my games.

Superb collection Ray & nicely displayed too,congrats! 8)

 

[Carl Waterworth]

Nice collection! love the retro computers, i still have a C64 and Amiga up in the loft with bags of games!

 

[Wookie-Balls]

I had to import the 5 1/4" floppies for my 64 from Pakistan so I could rewrite from a SD Card & Cart onto them... :lol: going to put my Amiga CD32 up on the bay soon and just keep the A600.

More vintage stuff to add to the Den over the next few weeks... more re-carded figures as I complete them, minirigs and I found an old Kenner ROTJ poster in my loft - which will be going inside a frame and onto the back of the door...

Also found one of the two last modern Lukes that I want for my focus, just one left to go...

Some nice stuff there, but that Mark Hamill autograph you have there on your wall is a forgery.

I'm not big on PT autographs, but that dual McGregor and Christensen looks a bit suss too.

 

[Wookie-Balls]

Uh huh, ok thanks for that
